What is the asking price?

Does your dad still have any of those parts?

What is the 2nd picture of? I see it says DELCO on it.

Here's one of our barn finds, although we knew about it all along. My dad actually bought this car in 1960 but had to sell it a year later in 1961 as he was still attending college and had too many cars. He sold it to a friend who lived 2 hours away. The friend did nothing with it for 48 years, and we were able to get it back in 2009 from his widow. It was last on the road in 1968. Loaded up for the ride home. Lots of dust blew off on the ride home. The same day after a quick bath.

I saw one of these many years ago. A Cord Westchester with a 1953 Cadillac drivetrain installed. It was fit in the original Cord frame, the floor board was cut out to fit the hydramatic transmission. I don't know what they used for motor mounts. The one I saw was done very crudely and was never completely finished. Most of the conversions were done in the 1950's as "backyard jobs" and that was before people started swapping out stub frames, ect, which is a complicated process.

What are you doing with the tan belt molding on the body?

True. I've seen the flat ones on e bay with no bids. I saw a few at Hershey this year as well. I don't think I've ever seen a flat one actually on a car.

The flat one is definitely a repro. All the original Lincoln K emblems were convex. Someone made these back in the late 70's or 80's. I have a couple of the flat ones too that were given to me for free. They have zero value as they can't be used on a car.

There's one on e bay right now. http://www.ebay.com/itm/151462259038?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I think you're over stating how difficult it would be to make this change. I don't believe any other classes would even have to be moved. There's always a lot of empty space at the end of class 19 or behind the brass cars. Put the pre war HPOF cars there so they can be near their contemporaries. We all value and appreciate the work the volunteers at Hershey do. Making a few minor changes every few years is not going to cause an earthquake.

I think HPOF should be split up between pre war & post war cars. With that thought in mind, at Hershey the pre war HPOF cars should be parked closer to all the other pre war cars on the show field. At the Hershey show last month was a beautiful early 30's Rolls Royce Brewster bodied Huntington sedan in HPOF. It was parked in between a 1960's Mustang and a 1980's Chevy Suburban. That makes no sense to me.

K8096 is the serial number of my 1937 Lincoln K. Bought the car when I was 24. Now I'm 40. Gosh, where does the time go? I still plan to restore it, but that may not happen until my kids are out of the house. In the meantime I keep accumulating parts & fixing small items on it.

What would the cost be?

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for confirming.

I have a late 1930's car, 6 volt positive ground. When I have the negative battery terminal connected to the battery first (goes to the starter) and then connect the positive cable to the battery second (ground) the ground connection sparks a little while I'm connecting it. I don't remember it doing this in the past. I haven't driven this car in 2 years. Do I have an electrical short somewhere or is something drawing current?

You need to own more than one old car. When you get tired working on one, switch to another for awhile!

My guess is Nash. Nash had overhead value engines.

I sent you a private message.

What space will these parts be located at Hershey?

Have this transmission not positive what it fits. It looks like Ford, but the top where it would go through the floor board looks different. Perhaps it's Ford truck? What do you think?

Looks like a 1932 or 33. Is the engine & front sheet metal there too? Unfortunately it would cost far more to restore that car than it would be worth done. You could probably buy a nice original 1932-33 Lincoln V 12 sedan for around 50K, and it would cost at least 150K to restore this one.

It sounds like you have a 1928 Stutz carburetor. All 1928 Stutz cars used the bronze Zenith. Starting in 1929 Zenith made them out of pot metal and they crumble and warp with age. The bronze one will work on the later engines just fine though. Can you post a few pictures?
